If we were out in the wild right now
We would need to have some ingenuity in finding those plants that are natural saponifier x' that are going to
Create a so penis that would keep us clean in the event that we needed them
Thankfully though most of us are able to have an indoor lifestyle with a pantry where we can keep a few things that are very
important for the days to come
If I was only given though one option one soap that would clean
Every single thing and person and different item throughout the home
I want to talk about what I would choose so in the next few minutes. We're going to talk about the world's most versatile soap
Stay with us
For centuries the most common soap throughout the entire world that was known and used most commonly was something called
Aleppo and it was a mixture of three ingredients. It was the oil from bay leaves
it was the olive oil and
soda those three things mixed together commonly were known as Aleppo and
It was about 1880 when the Heil Bronner family invented
Castile soap as we understand it now this new or so that's kind of an upgrade from that Aleppo
That was used so many years before that so
In 1880 down in the basement of the house Bronner family. There was the son.
We have come to know has his son as Dr.
Bronner and you probably are familiar with Dr.
Bronner's soap castile soap, but I did a little bit of research to understand. Okay, how did they invent it?
What is it made of and why do we call it Castile Soap?
What is Castile? Well Castile is simply the name given to it because back then,
The olives that were used to press the olive oil that made the soap
Came from Castile Spain. That was the best place to get your olive oil from and so it came became known as Castile soap.
It is made of really just two ingredients and that is: sodium hydroxide and
Olive oil. Over the years the recipe has morphed just a little bit. In fact, today
We see it with a couple of different options.
There's a slight difference where sodium hydroxide is really lye
and pretty caustic
There is now kind of a little bit of an upgrade where it's morphed into a lot of potassium hydroxide
That's used in castile soap. Also. We often see it with
coconut oil instead of olive oil or a mix of coconut and olive oils or even a few other ones mixed in
Fact I was looking at this that I have here
This is the hemp almond version of it and some of the ingredients that are listed on it are
including palm kernel oil
hemp oil jojoba oil
Almond fragrance and citric acid. Those are a little bit of a
Variation from the original version, but we still call this
100% pure natural castile soap
Since that time also there have been other companies that make a similar product that is also called
100% pure natural castile soap and it has a few different ingredients. This is all-natural dr. Jacobs
Castile soap and it has also in it coconut oil
saponified olive oil potassium oleate
Vegetable glycerin and a few other natural things so it can have multiple ingredients and still be called
100% pure natural
Castile soap because Castile is just the name given to it and it is made of natural oils
along with that potassium or sodium
hydroxide now
This is the miracle of this soap though. It is all-natural
It can be used in so many different ways and you see it here in the liquid form
But you can also get it in the bar form. This is Kirk's original castile soap, and it's wonderful
You can grate this up
you could melt it and make it into a liquid form if you'd like it's a great way to store it in your
storage area just in the in the bar form or use it in the
shower like that for washing your body, but in the liquid form I
Can't even name all of the ways that you can use this, but I want to name just a few
It makes beautiful shampoo it also can be used for cleaning your clothing
It can be used for cleaning your shower or your bathroom or your sink or your dishes as dish soap it?
can even be used as
Dishwasher soap in the dishwasher. Can you believe it?
This is crazy though too - it can be used for shaving, it can be used for toothpaste.
So if there was only one soap I could have in my pantry right now
That would be the most versatile for washing my body my hair my teeth, my clothing, my dishes
My home, and appliances it would be
castile soap
100% pure castile soap and you
Can make it yourself, but it's kind of a very laborious process. I don't recommend trying because you're
having to go through quite a bit of process to get that lye just perfect and
Mix it with the natural oils
But I would say it's worth stocking up in your PREPSTEADER's pantry. Have some of it in liquid form as well as bar form
And you'll be good to go for almost anything throughout the home, so tell me your favorite ways to use it
I know that there are a million and there are so many different recipes
We're going to be covering some of them some of them in future
videos, but tell us your favorite recipes or how you use it throughout your home or out in your garden or on your vehicles, it's
Truly the world's most versatile soap. I hope that you learned just a little bit of the history of it today
I think it's kind of interesting myself
I love this product, and I can highly recommend it whatever version you get of it and whatever brand
I'm not promoting any specific brand in fact the politics of Dr. Bronner and his religion
I'm really not sure about he has all kinds of it on his labels and it's kind of humorous
I would just say whatever kind you get
Get one hundred percent pure and natural castile soap
And you probably have an excellent very versatile product in your home alright share this video with someone you love
Tell us your favorite recipes and we'll see you next time God bless you!
Before you go. I want to share a quick verse out of Isaiah 55 this is awesome
This is 12 and 13 hold on. Let me get to it. Okay, "For you
will go out with joy and be led forth with peace
The mountains and the hills will spring before you into singing and the trees of the fields will clap their hands
instead of the thorns shall come up the Cypress and instead of the briars shall come up the Myrtle and
it will be a name for the Lord an
Everlasting sign that will not be cut off."
We have this hope and it's worth sharing so go spread the word!
